August 21, 2018

Last updated: August 21, 2018

University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust (UHB) completed a merger by acquisition of Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust (HEFT) on 1st April 2018.   UHB includes Birmingham Heartlands Hospital, the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, Solihull Hospital and Community Services, Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield and Birmingham Chest Clinic.

Due to historical differences in data collection/reporting across UHB and the former Heart of England NHS Foundation Trust some responses have been provided by hospital site.

Within your trust how many patients have been treated, in the past 6 months January to June 2018 by diagnosed eye condition. Of these patients how many are new to treatment [they have not previously received an injection / implant]? If your trust can not split by condition, please supply the total patients and total new patients. A new patient is one that has not previously received an injection in either eye for an ophthalmology condition.
